Trump is already lying about Talarico
What a surprise.
He says he is vegan.
He says he attacks Jesus Christ.
Of which, none is true.
When will the press call him on his lies.

Talarico is a Christian; eats products with animal byproducts.

(37,287 posts)and he is very religious. He has a master's in divinity from the Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary. Baptist and Presbyterian roots while Trump can't even hold a bible right side up.
For anyone who wants some background - this is a great article from Politico from 3 years. James was elected to the Texas House of Representatives in 2018.

An excerpt from the article - this is who he is:
This bill to me is not only unconstitutional, its not only un-American, I think it is also deeply un-Christian, he told her, as she stood motionless. And I say that because I believe this bill is idolatrous. I believe it is exclusionary. And I believe that it is arrogant, and those three things, in my reading of the Gospel, are diametrically opposed to the teachings of Jesus. He cited Matthew 6:5, in which Jesus urges his disciples to not pray publicly like the hypocrites.
